Dual representation for the generating functional of the Feynman path-integral
Marco Matone
The generating functional for scalar theories admits a representation which is dual with respect to the one introduced by Schwinger, interchanging the role of the free and interact…
Brane induced supersymmetry breaking and de Sitter supergravity
Igor Bandos, Luca Martucci, Dmitri Sorokin +1
We obtain a four-dimensional supergravity with spontaneously broken supersymmetry allowing for de Sitter vacua by coupling a superspace action of minimal N=1, D=4 supergravity to a…
Majorana Fermions, Supersymmetry Breaking, and Born-Infeld Theory
Sergio Ferrara, Alessio Marrani, Armen Yeranyan
This review is devoted to highlight some aspects of the relevance of Majorana fermions in rigid supersymmetry breaking in four spacetime dimensions. After introducing some basic fa…
Minimal scalar-less matter-coupled supergravity
Gianguido Dall'Agata, Sergio Ferrara, Fabio Zwirner
We build the minimal supergravity model where the nilpotent chiral goldstino superfield is coupled to a chiral matter superfield, realising a different non-linear representation th…
T-Duality of Green-Schwarz Superstrings on AdS(d) x S(d) x M(10-2d)
Michael C. Abbott, Jeff Murugan, Silvia Penati +6
We verify the self-duality of Green-Schwarz supercoset sigma models on AdS backgrounds (d=2,3,5) under combined bosonic and fermionic T-dualities without gauge fixi…
Dynamics of Perturbations in Double Field Theory & Non-Relativistic String Theory
Sung Moon Ko, Charles Melby-Thompson, Rene Meyer +1
Double Field Theory provides a geometric framework capable of describing string theory backgrounds that cannot be understood purely in terms of Riemannian geometry -- not only glob…
Hidden Selection Rules, M5-instantons and Fluxes in F-theory
Luca Martucci, Timo Weigand
We introduce a new approach to investigate the selection rules governing the contributions of fluxed M5-instantons to the F-theory four-dimensional effective action, with emphasis…
AdS3 Holography for 1/4 and 1/8 BPS geometries
Stefano Giusto, Emanuele Moscato, Rodolfo Russo
Recently a new class of 1/8-BPS regular geometries in type IIB string theory was constructed in arXiv:1503.01463. In this paper we provide a precise description of the semiclassica…
Non-perturbative selection rules in F-theory
Luca Martucci, Timo Weigand
We discuss the structure of charged matter couplings in 4-dimensional F-theory compactifications. Charged matter is known to arise from M2-branes wrapping fibral curves on an ellip…
Exponentiating Higgs
Marco Matone
We consider two related formulations for mass generation in the Higgs-Kibble model and in the Standard Model (SM). In the first model there are no scalar self-interactions a…
Breaking discrete symmetries in the effective field theory of inflation
Dario Cannone, Jinn-Ouk Gong, Gianmassimo Tasinato
We study the phenomenon of discrete symmetry breaking during the inflationary epoch, using a model-independent approach based on the effective field theory of inflation. We work in…
On single and double soft behaviors in NLSM
Yi-Jian Du, Hui Luo
In this paper, we study the single and double soft behaviors of tree level off-shell currents and on-shell amplitudes in nonlinear sigma model(NLSM). We first propose and prove the…
A Flux-Scaling Scenario for High-Scale Moduli Stabilization in String Theory
Ralph Blumenhagen, Anamaria Font, Michael Fuchs +4
Tree-level moduli stabilization via geometric and non-geometric fluxes in type IIB orientifolds on Calabi-Yau manifolds is investigated. The focus is on stable non-supersymmetric m…
Towards Axionic Starobinsky-like Inflation in String Theory
Ralph Blumenhagen, Anamaria Font, Michael Fuchs +2
It is shown that Starobinsky-like potentials can be realized in non-geometric flux compactifications of string theory, where the inflaton involves an axion whose shift symmetry can…
Habemus Superstratum! A constructive proof of the existence of superstrata
Iosif Bena, Stefano Giusto, Rodolfo Russo +2
We construct the first example of a superstratum: a class of smooth horizonless supergravity solutions that are parameterized by arbitrary continuous functions of (at least) two va…
